I'm not really sure about the current status of both Midgard's
and Asgard's event handling, but at a time when there wasn't a
single line of code written for both we developed a PHP3 wrapper
class for 'event articles' -- articles that are designated
events by setting their type to a number reserved for events.
With some minor changes our library could be generalized to an
API that allows free selection of event articles by topic (also
a list of topics), start and end timestamps, sorted and filtered
by nearly all other fields you might want. It uses its own MySQL
connection to access Midgard's tables and put most of the
searching and sorting work on the database's shoulders, but it's
still not a speed winner ;-)

Contact me privately if you're interested.
